Trevor Wishart - Globalalia / Imago CD 23629[Orpheus the Pantomime]

GLOBALALIA is a 29 minute piece using syllables taken from 26 different languages, to create a series of elaborate variations on the sounds of language itself. / By processes of continual sonic metamorphosis on the single 'clink' of two wineglasses (taken from Jonty Harrison's 'et ainsi de suite') IMAGO arrives at allusions to the sea, birdsong, gamelan music and the human voice.
